Investor Friendly Contractor needed for Brooklyn Flip

Posted

Seeking a GC for a property we are purchasing that is in need of a full gut/ heavy rehab. Must be Class A, permits will be required. 
Needed to walk through property and get bids for work ASAP. We are putting in offer for property but need an idea of repairs first. 
DM me for contact info. 
Thanks, 

Vanessa L.

Quote from @Eric Hajdu:

Hey Vanessa, I saw your post regarding a GC for a heavy rehab requiring permits in Brooklyn.  From my experience with this type of work in the city, you would want to start with an architect and engineer.  It's hard to get accurate bids if your not clear on your scope, sometimes what you want to do might not be possible, due to code, FAR, etc.  I have found a good architect to be the quarterback in any NYC project of any scale.  Feel free to message me for any further info. you might need, good luck.

Eric

I echo this 100%. If you don't have a concise SOW, Bids will be all over the place since all the GCs will have different items in their head. Plus what meets code is rather specific and narrows the estimates.
